Python Crash Course

Certainly! Here are ten examples for each of the topics you mentioned:

BASICS

  1. Basics:
    Example 1: Printing a message
   print("Hello, World!")

Example 2: Arithmetic operations

   a = 10
   b = 5
   print("Addition:", a + b)
   print("Subtraction:", a - b)
   print("Multiplication:", a * b)
   print("Division:", a / b)
   print("Modulo:", a % b)

Example 3: String concatenation

   name = "Alice"
   age = 25
   print("My name is " + name + " and I am " + str(age) + " years old.")

Example 4: Using the input function

   name = input("Enter your name: ")
   print("Hello, " + name + "!")

Example 5: Conditional statements

   num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
   if num > 0:
       print("The number is positive.")
   elif num < 0:
       print("The number is negative.")
   else:
       print("The number is zero.")

Example 6: Working with loops (for loop)

   for i in range(5):
       print(i)

Example 7: Working with loops (while loop)

   count = 0
   while count < 5:
       print(count)
       count += 1

Example 8: Using the len() function

   text = "Hello, World!"
   print("Length:", len(text))

Example 9: Using the str() function

   num = 42
   text = "The answer is: " + str(num)
   print(text)

Example 10: Importing and using modules

   import math

   radius = 5
   area = math.pi * radius ** 2
   print("Area of the circle:", area)

CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS IF ELSE

  1. If-Else Statements:
    Example 1: Checking if a number is even or odd
   num = int(input("Enter a number: "))
   if num % 2 == 0:
       print("The number is even.")
   else:
       print("The number is odd.")

Example 2: Checking if a year is a leap year

   year = int(input("Enter a year: "))
   if year % 400 == 0 or (year % 4 == 0 and year % 100 != 0):
       print("The year is a leap year.")
   else:
       print("The year is not a leap year.")

Example 3: Determining the maximum of three numbers

   num1 = float(input("Enter the first number: "))
   num2 = float(input("Enter the second number: "))
   num3 = float(input("Enter the third number: "))
   max_num = max(num1, num2, num3)
   print("The maximum number is:", max_num)

Example 4: Checking if a student passed or failed

   score = float(input("Enter the student's score: "))
   if score >= 60:
       print("The student passed.")
   else:
       print("The student failed.")

Example 5

: Categorizing a number into different ranges

   num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
   if num < 0:
       print("The number is negative.")
   elif num >= 0 and num <= 10:
       print("The number is between 0 and 10.")
   elif num > 10 and num <= 20:
       print("The number is between 10 and 20.")
   else:
       print("The number is greater than 20.")

Example 7: Checking if a number is positive, negative, or zero (alternative approach)

   num = float(input("Enter a number: "))
   if num > 0:
       print("The number is positive.")
   elif num < 0:
       print("The number is negative.")

       print("The number is zero.")

Example 8: Checking if a character is a vowel or consonant

   char = input("Enter a character: ").lower()
   if char in ['a', 'e', 'i', 'o', 'u']:
       print("The character is a vowel.")
   else:
       print("The character is a consonant.")

Example 9: Checking if a number is a multiple of another number

   num1 = int(input("Enter the first number: "))
   num2 = int(input("Enter the second number: "))
   if num1 % num2 == 0:
       print(num1, "is a multiple of", num2)
   else:
       print(num1, "is not a multiple of", num2)

Example 10: Checking if a year is a leap year (alternative approach)

   year = int(input("Enter a year: "))
   if year % 400 == 0 or (year % 4 == 0 and year % 100 != 0):
       print("The year is a leap year.")
   else:
       print("The year is not a leap year.")

For loop with range

  1. Printing numbers from 0 to 9:

Now, let’s provide 10 examples using the same list of employees:

  1. Accessing values in the list:
print(employees[0]["name"])     # Output: "John"
print(employees[3]["age"])      # Output: 29
  1. Modifying a value in the list:
employees[2]["salary"] = 72000
print(employees[2])             # Output: {'name': 'Michael', 'age': 35, 'department': 'Finance', 'salary': 72000}
  1. Adding a new key-value pair to a dictionary:
employees[1]["position"] = "Senior Software Engineer"
print(employees[1])             # Output: {'name': 'Emily', 'age': 28, 'department': 'IT', 'salary': 60000, 'position': 'Senior Software Engineer'}
  1. Removing a key-value pair from a dictionary:
del employees[4]["age"]
print(employees[4])             # Output: {'name': 'Daniel', 'department': 'IT', 'salary': 62000}
  1. Counting the number of dictionaries in the list:
count = len(employees)
print("Number of employees:", count)   # Output: Number of employees: 10
  1. Calculating the average age of all employees:
total_salary = 0
num_employees = len(employees)

for employee in employees:
    total_salary += employee["salary"]

average_salary = total_salary / num_employees

print("Average salary:", average_salary)
  1. Finding the employee with the highest salary:
max_salary = 0
employee_with_max_salary = None

for employee in employees:
    if employee["salary"] > max_salary:
        max_salary = employee["salary"]
        employee_with_max_salary = employee

print("Employee with the highest salary:")
print("Name:", employee_with_max_salary["name"])
print("Salary:", employee_with_max_salary["salary"])
  1. Finding all employees having highest salary:
max_salary = 0
employees_with_max_salary = []

for employee in employees:
    if employee["salary"] > max_salary:
        max_salary = employee["salary"]
        employees_with_max_salary = [employee]
    elif employee["salary"] == max_salary:
        employees_with_max_salary.append(employee)

print("Employees with the highest salary:")
for employee in employees_with_max_salary:
    print("Name:", employee["name"])
    print("Salary:", employee["salary"])
    print()
  1. Calculating total, average, highest and lowest salaries all employees:
total_salary = 0
highest_salary = float("-inf")
lowest_salary = float("inf")

for employee in employees:
    salary = employee["salary"]
    total_salary += salary

    if salary > highest_salary:
        highest_salary = salary

    if salary < lowest_salary:
        lowest_salary = salary

average_salary = total_salary / len(employees)

print("Total Salary:", total_salary)
print("Highest Salary:", highest_salary)
print("Lowest Salary:", lowest_salary)
print("Average Salary:", average_salary)
  1. Print all employees using PrettyTable:
# Print all employees
all_employees_table = PrettyTable(["Name", "Department", "Salary"])
for employee in employees:
    all_employees_table.add_row([employee["name"], employee["department"], employee["salary"]])
all_employees_table.title = "All Employees"
print(all_employees_table)
